A new column by Bill Kemp published on Yahoo Sports argues that the University of Michigan's next head football coach should be a "True Blue" – someone with deep ties to the program's tradition and culture.
The opinion piece, dated November 8, 2026, appears via the USA TODAY Network and Reuters Connect. Kemp contends that the Wolverines' next leader must embody the school's identity to maintain continuity and success.
Michigan is currently searching for a replacement following the departure of its previous head coach. The column adds to the ongoing debate about the qualifications and background the program should prioritize.
